Sexual Harassment Awareness Certificate
A recent study of UK workplaces found that over 50% of all women have been sexually harassed at some point in their careers. Numbers like these paint an unpleasant image of workplaces across the country. Sexual harassment at work can lead to several negative consequences, including low productivity, loss of interest in work and even the development of depression and anxiety. Understanding your role as an employee in preventing sexual harassment at work always leads to healthier working environments.
This course provides you with important information about preventing sexual harassment at work, focusing on the role of the employee. It begins by providing you with a few important definitions. It then moves on to talk about the behaviours exhibited by those who are victimising others, as well as those of victims. Next, specific strategies for prevention are provided. Finally, we examine the role of the employer and the employee in active prevention.
